Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 304 Resurrection and Clustering!!

Lazarus syndrome is the unassisted restoration of spontaneous circulation in the absence of cardiopulmonary resuscitation or in the absence and cessation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

The Lazarus phenomenon was first reported in 1982 and was officially named in 1993.

'Lazarus syndrome' gets its name from a biblical story, but it actually happens in real life.

"No, not dead? What are you doing?" The family members were stunned.

Zheng Qi was too lazy to talk to him!

They rushed directly to Zhou Yanqing's location, and the nurses quickly became nervous again and reconnected the ECG monitoring and oxygen inhalation.

Monitor your blood pressure...

Working in the emergency department, many people have been educated about the Lazarus phenomenon, but from the time it was named to now, Xiangya Hospital has never found a case.

Over the past few decades, only a few dozen cases have been reported worldwide.

Existence is reasonable, and no one can fully explain how this phenomenon came about.

The middle-aged man was still questioning: "What are you doing? My daughter is not dead?"

"Shut up first!" A senior nurse turned around and shouted.

The ECG monitoring system sensed the patient's heart rate very quickly, and it did recover, but it was not stable.

"Push the CT room! Push the operating room! " Zheng Qi said immediately.

Opposite Zheng Qi, He Qingqing, who was in charge of examining the woman, slowly put down her right index finger and once again looked in the direction of Zhou Yanqing in astonishment, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

She couldn't feel a pulse.

But the patient's heartbeat is not deceiving, this proves that the patient's blood pumping is extremely poor now! ~
There was only a barely detectable arterial pulsation, but Zhou Yanqing still captured it.

She was actually "dead" and her heart had stopped beating for a long time, but it started beating again for some indescribable reason.

"Speed ​​up the infusion!~"

"Perform tracheal intubation!" He Qingqing quickly instructed the nurses to bring the intubation equipment.

……

The middle-aged couple watched their daughter being wheeled away before they asked again, "What on earth is going on?"

"My daughter? What's going on?"

Nowadays, unless one is particularly uninformed, everyone knows what a flattened heart rate means. It is impossible for so many people in Xiangya Hospital to joke about this phenomenon.

"Lazarus phenomenon, it is possible that the delayed external cardiac massage played a role! ~"

"It is also possible that the drugs we injected into the patient during the rescue process took effect, which is a very rare phenomenon."

"Over the past few decades, there have only been dozens of cases reported with detailed data worldwide."

"And it's hard to find!~" Zhou Yanqing was the one who discovered it, so he had to be responsible for explaining it to the family members.

In fact, only a little over two minutes passed from the time the rescue was stopped until Zhou Yanqing and others rushed out.

"So what's happening to my daughter now?" The young man didn't understand the principle behind what Zhou Yanqing said and just wanted to ask for a more direct answer.

"still have a chance!"

"She is seriously injured, and it is a head injury with a large amount of hematoma. She needs an emergency craniotomy to drain the hematoma. Only then will there be a chance..."

"It is also possible that after another round of rescue, the patient still cannot be saved."

Zhou Yanqing said this, and quickly took a step forward and supported the middle-aged man: "Get up, kneeling is useless to me! ~"

"It's no use kneeling anywhere!"

"stand up."

The middle-aged man said: "Doctor, please, save my daughter, please."

"Can you please save her?" He looked at Gong Zhenyu and the others again: "Please save her, please."

The middle-aged man's eyes were full of bloodshot, and saliva was flying from the corners of his mouth. It was obvious that he could no longer control his emotions...

"We will rescue him, but there is no guarantee that we can save him."

"Don't bother us anymore. We need to review the film and arrange the surgery as soon as possible."

"Can you please sign first?" Zhou Yanqing began to change the subject.

After hearing what Zhou Yanqing said, Gong Zhenyu from the neurosurgery department who had sent another patient into the operating room hurried to reprint the informed consent form for the surgery.

"Sign, sign, and pay."

"I'll pay."

"I do everything..." At this moment, perhaps only parents can truly understand how anxious they are.

……

Three hours later, the girl was transferred to the ICU, still unconscious.

But after Zheng Qi stepped down, he went straight to Zhou Yanqing, stretched out his right hand and fiercely grasped Zhou Yanqing's right palm.

Very hard, and then not a single word was said.

"Brother Qi, you are the one who has worked hard. I may have caused you a lot of trouble."

"After all, if we postpone the surgery for this patient after the cardiac arrest rescue, the prognosis may not be very good." Zhou Yanqing spoke frankly first.

Zheng Qi said: "Don't look at the impact, just look at the reality."

"When Director He Qingqing and I were leaving, she told me that if you hadn't gone to examine her, she wouldn't even have the chance to enter the operating room."

“The main reason why Lazarus syndrome is rarely reported is that it is difficult to detect. Most patients can only survive unless their prognosis is extremely good.”

"Otherwise, most people are more likely to lose the chance of being resuscitated."

"As for the prognosis, that is not something we can handle."

"Our hospital's ECG monitoring has records, and we have printed out the records."

"After half an hour of no heartbeat, even if we told them abroad, no one would dare to question our decision to give up resuscitation."

Zheng Qi said this and opened his mouth again: "But?"

"After my heart was finally hanging in the air, it was hanging again. It was quite a subtle feeling."

"Lazarus syndrome." Zheng Qi shook his head.

This phenomenon is really rare.

When he said this, the door of the duty room was pushed open again. It turned out to be Professor Lin Changhong who pushed the door open from outside after hearing the news.

After entering the room, he stood in front of Zhou Yanqing and asked: "You measured Lazarus syndrome with your hands?"

Zhou Yanqing didn't reply, Zheng Qi nodded first.

"Yes, Director Lin, Doctor Zhou casually took the patient's pulse and told us to act urgently."

"The ECG monitor detected the heart rate again." Even if the patient died after the operation, it could not conceal Zhou Yanqing's awesomeness.

Being able to do what others cannot do is a miracle and an incredible thing in the understanding of others.

It was the same pair of hands, but Zhou Yanqing might have evolved them secretly without bringing others along.

When Lin Changhong heard Zheng Qi's confirmation, he looked at Zhou Yanqing with a more complicated look. After nodding and praising him, he turned and left without saying much.

No matter how powerful Zhou Yanqing is, he can only be rewarded but not received. It is better to talk less and think less, so as not to get angry and go to fight with Tan Zhongyu...

After Lin Changhong left, he cursed in a low voice: "Zhou Yanqing is such a jerk!~"
